2005 PROGRAM SCHEDULE

10th Annual Communication Week


Acknowledgment

The 10th Annual Communication Week at Central State University in Ohio is a good example of how to bridge the gap between professionals and academics. Your line-up of guest speakers and activities shows your commitment to future generations of communicators. The Minorities and Communication Division of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC) is proud to be a sponsor in this year’s Communication Week. The Minorities and Communication Division devotes its energies to rectifying inequalities in the fields of journalism and mass communication, and to making journalism curriculum more reflective of America’s ethnic and racial diversity.

Congratulations to Central State University in Ohio for yet another wonderful Communication Week. Thank you for mentoring your students.

Dr. M.C. Santana, Division Head
Minorities and Communication Division, AEJMC
